I am still in a fraternity, and always will be. I don't care to discuss affiliation....but i'm sure you can figure it out if you look around.

Pledges only go to pledge meetings, after initiation they are to go to chapter meetings. And yes, you are only allowed into the chapter room after initiation.

You don't care to discuss affiliation? To me it's not the fact that you're in a house, it's WHAT house you're in that matters. But you have made a point that you are a SAE, but what's with all of the name changes ( SAETX, georgewallace ) ?

Don't really see what you are trying to say...but oh well. They blocked my first two names or something like that and they wouldn't work, so I just made random names.

Different groups have different rules. It's not that shocking, really.

Well, since you did discuss it in this thread just 2 pages ago by saying you're an SAE, I guess pretty much anyone can figure it out.

That's not true in all fraternities. Delt is a case in point.

The worst I've heard from my campus is some rumor that a certain fraternity makes their pledges carve out a pumpkin around halloween, makes them put it on their heads, then the brothers beat it off with a stick. I can't verify this, but if its true might I be the first to say that would suck some major ass.

Alright time to settle this. In my franternity we hold a very large distinction between "chapter room" and "ritual room." The chapter room is where all members, initiated or not, come to have chapter meetings. A chapter room can be any room in the house provided that it is large enough to hold the meeting. The ritual room, where only initiated brothers are allowed in, is specifically for items used during ritual.

The following aren't rumors. These actually happen here... or at least used to.

One of the frats here made their pledges stand out on the plaza wearing only 2 socks and nothing else - one sock on their foot and the other... well I think you can figure that out. - that frat has since been kicked off campus after a pledge died on a night.

One of the frats brands the pledges with a number on their butts.

One elephant walks

One tapes a handle of vodka to each of the pledges hands and tells them they have to drink it all (they don't have to drink the whole thing, just until they're ridiculously drunk)

One makes the pledges carry around bent nickels in a bag at all times

Another has a "lost your bet" week where the pledges have to do/wear random things - one guy had to have a korean flag on him all week - and they can't shower for a week

Most of the frats do a 7-mile hike up a mountain on a weeknight and everyone has to be at class the next day (they usually don't get back till 7am or so)

Everyone does pushups, situps, etc. in the creek in 20-30 degree weather, even the sororities.

Here are some rumors about my frat - It's a Christian fraternity and so people come up with some weird stuff they think we do. 1. They think we flog/beat the pledges with a whip (we don't) 2. They think we tie them up to a tree as if we're crucifying them (we don't) 3. They think we brand them (we don't... unless they really want to. So far only 3 people in the history of the frat have done so lol)

Question goat pledge honey haze

cant understand this goat honey thing does the goat lick the honey off the pledges surly the goat would also eat the pledges underwear i was told a goat will eat anything i remember being told of pledges being stripped off covered in jam and staked out over a red ants nest you could hear the screams for miles also pledges being taken to a pig farm stripped and staked out on all fours then food would be tipped over the pledges and they would become a table for the pigs to eat off of honey would also be put over the pledges privates for the pigs to lick off dont know if this is true but the red ants nest is
